20. TIPS FOR BUILDING SELF- ESTEEM Associate with people who build. Build others, sincere compliments. Set and achieve goals. Eat correctly, look your best. Observe self-confident people. Ask for help. Improve yourself, learn something new. Do not say negative things about yourself. Think positively.

21. WHAT CAN YOU DO  Accept yourself: Stop worrying about the things you can’t change. Be more accepting of others and the things they can’t change.  Try not to compare with others. It’s unfair. You may compare their strengths with your weaknesses. Judge yourself in terms of your own growth

22. WHAT CAN YOU DO  Have Realistic Expectations – We expect to much from ourselves. Perfection is not possible but bettering our self should be a lifetime goal. We grow with models who appear to be perfect at everything. Hero’s are good to look at but they have their problems too.

23. POSITIVE SELF-CONCEPT I can do anything I really want to do I have definite strengths and abilities I am an okay person I see myself as being as good as my friends There are many ways to solve a problem

24. NEGATIVE SELF-CONCEPT Why try? I could never do it anyway. I am not nearly as good as my friends. I am a jerk. I knew my plans would not work. I cannot do anything right.
